This warm (hot) weather calls for strawberry mint lime smoothies, or margaritas. Let’s stay in Memorial Day mode a little longer :) We’re back in action for a short work week after a long weekend. What a lovely sentence that is. I hope your Memorial Day weekend was filled with cookouts, warm weather, relaxation and…

I’m sorry for the radio silence over here. With the busiest season at work and our move last week, I have neglected this space in efforts to keep myself afloat and functioning well in a few other areas of life.
